Abstract
Predicting coronary artery occlusion after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is usually based on computed tomography angiography (CTA). The primary risk factors seem to be a low coronary artery take-off and a small aortic root. However, CTA sometimes provides ambiguous risk assessment, and even if a potentially risky coronary artery is secured with a guidewire, the need for coronary stenting after valve implantation often remains uncertain. To reduce uncertainty, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) can be used. The following two cases highlight the utility of IVUS in addressing these issues.
期刊介绍：
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions is an international journal covering the broad field of cardiovascular diseases. Subject material includes basic and clinical information that is derived from or related to invasive and interventional coronary or peripheral vascular techniques. The journal focuses on material that will be of immediate practical value to physicians providing patient care in the clinical laboratory setting. To accomplish this, the journal publishes Preliminary Reports and Work In Progress articles that complement the traditional Original Studies, Case Reports, and Comprehensive Reviews. Perspective and insight concerning controversial subjects and evolving technologies are provided regularly through Editorial Commentaries furnished by members of the Editorial Board and other experts. Articles are subject to double-blind peer review and complete editorial evaluation prior to any decision regarding acceptability.
